Welcome to The List,
The biggest news over the weekend was Blake and Gwen…Blake Shelton Still Can’t Believe That He Is Married To Gwen Stefani … He kept Gwen’s ring in the little door pocket you know the one you keep, salt packets, flashlights, pocket knives in..”Yeah for like five days I drove around in that truck thinking, man you know this thing could fall out of the door. Somebody’s going to have a great day if they stumble on to this ring.” Blake says he only got to be on ‘The Voice’ because Reba McEntire turned the spot down. Had he not taken the job he may have never met Gwen Stefani
Luke Combs tells Music Mayhem magazine that a television and a couch were the best gifts he ever received from his parents. “My parents got me my own television when I was probably like 13. They put it in the basement and they got me like an old couch from Goodwill. And, me and my buddies would go down there and they hooked it up to cable we could watch TV down there and play N64 and do all that stuff.
E! News says Chris Lane’s newborn son has been hospitalized. He posted; “Spent the night in the hospital. If you pray, Dutty Buddy needs some prayers.”
Will Smith to the rescue…he’s currently filming a movie in New Orleans and WWL reports that he learned that there wasn’t going to be a firework display for the fourth of July because of a funding issue…so…Will…wrote a check for $100,000 and the fireworks went on!!!
Would YOU recognize Dale Earnhardt Jr. if you saw him? Whiskey Riff says a security guard at the Pocono Speedway failed to when Dale tried to enter the track before a race. The website quotes Dale as saying, “I have never in my life uttered the words, ‘Do you know who I am?’ I’d never take that stance, and I stood there and the people around me were laughing at the guy like, ‘Are you serious? You don’t know who this guy is?’ Eventually, he showed his race pass and was let in…in response the race course put up a giant sign with Dale Jr’s picture and said he was allowed access to the course

Welcome to The List,
Sad news from the soap world. General Hospital icon Anthony Geary has passed away at age 78 due to complications from surgery in Amsterdam. Fans knew him forever as Luke Spencer, one of the most legendary characters daytime TV has ever seen. His longtime on-screen partner Genie Francis said, “No star burned brighter than Tony Geary,” adding that working with him was always unpredictable and exciting. A true original, and a massive loss for television history.

Radar Online says Mariah Carey is allegedly stressed that her Christmas anthem All I Want For Christmas Is You might not dominate the charts this year. Apparently Gen Z is flirting with other holiday jams. An insider says this song is basically Mariah’s financial Super Bowl. If it underperforms, the brand wobbles. Somewhere, Mariah is warming up her whistle register and threatening December itself.

Riley Green had a moment onstage when a fan tossed leopard-print granny panties at him mid-show. He kept singing like a pro while the internet absolutely did not. His tour crew has now started collecting bras, panties, and even hair extensions thrown on stage. Riley said they were going to donate the bras once he learned how expensive they are. Country concerts really are built different.

Blake Shelton told People magazine that Gwen Stefani is the head chef at home, especially when it comes to Italian food. Blake says her lasagna takes all day to make, but he’d eat it for the rest of his life. Somewhere, an Oklahoma grill is quietly weeping, but love is love. And apparently love tastes like lasagna.
